Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Outside of the Nazi hierarchy, Odilo Globocnik is almost certainly the most culpable in the planned and almost successfully executed attempt to annihilate all the Jews of Europe. In producing this book, the author was soon to discover several interesting facets to the history of this unsavory character. Not only did he play a leading role in the process of murdering the Jews, he was also the arch highwayman in the plunder of their possessions. Additionally, he was responsible for the compulsory uprooting of thousands of Polish non-Jewish citizens, the destruction of their communities, and the trafficking of enforced slave laborers. Often justifiably vilified for his crooked dealings as Gauleiter of Vienna, his function as asset stripper of the Polish Jews is overshadowed by his unquestionable major role in their physical destruction. The ultimate crime of mass murder far outweighs the less significant, but nevertheless considerable, offenses of robbery and human trafficking, for obvious reasons. Odilo Globocnik was guilty of them all.

In the turbulent times of the post-World War One era, new political parties emerged frequently in Germany, many with opposing extremist policies. The Communist movement grew out of the Socialist working classes using the Russian Bolshevik Party as a template. In direct opposition, the new National Socialist German Workers Party under the leadership of Adolf Hitler, occupied the extreme right-wing position. Head on conflict was inevitable and both parties organised violent demonstrations against the other. Hitler recognised that he was physically vulnerable and ordered the formation of his own protection squad, made up of loyal men who would not shirk from a fight. From the rudimentary ranks of Hitler's select few grew the infant SS, a modern praetorian guard, which developed over the years into a massive and efficient military style force with tentacles spreading into all elements of everyday life in Nazi Germany. To administer this organisation, Hitler appointed leaders upon whom he could rely. Many names remain obscure, but this book highlights who they all were and how they appeared.

Volume 3, officers with surnames R to W. In the turbulent times of the post-World War One era, new political parties emerged frequently in Germany, many with opposing extremist policies.

"I was following orders." The answer most commonly quoted by SS men accused of atrocious crimes after Germany had surrendered in 1945. But who gave those orders? Who was the mastermind behind the sophisticated machinery which allowed men from normal family backgrounds to kill on such a scale? The right man at the right time, fate steered Heinrich Himmler to take control of an organisation destined to carry out Hitler's racial policies. This study not only sets out in detail how Heinrich Himmler's daily routine allowed him to implement Nazi strategy, but it also provides illustrations of the man behind much of it, both at work and at home. Of all the personalities of history demonized by post-war writers, Heinrich Himmler ranks among the most reviled. His legacy is one of hatred, violence and cold blooded murder on a vast scale. A Jekyll and Hyde character, variously described by his generation and those who followed as charming, loyal, polite, a pedant, an eccentric, an organizational genius, a fool, a desk killer and a loving father.The camera allows us into his world, albeit temporarily, and we can equate his busy, but mostly mundane schedule with contemporary images frozen in time. What makes this book unique is the astonishing amount of photographic material, following Himmler on his day to day routine. It is a must read for anyone interested in the enigmatic man and the operations of the Third Reich.

Die Instrumentierung von Kernreaktoren hat die Aufgabe, bleibende Unterlagen von den veranderlichen Grossen der Anlage zu schaffen. Daneben soll sie unmittelbare Informationen fur den sicheren und wirtschaftlichen Betrieb des Reaktors, von Hand oder automatisch, liefern. Zur automatischen Regelung gehort auch das selbsttatige Ab schalten des Reaktors, sobald ernsthafte Storungen auftreten. Um diesen Forderungen gerecht zu werden, muss man ein Mess-und uber wachungsprogramm fur folgende Betriebsgrossen vorsehen: Reaktorleistung durch Messfuhler ausserhalb des Reaktorkerns, Neutronenfluss innerhalb des Reaktorkerns, Temperatur von Brennstoff und Moderator, Durchfluss, Temperatur, Druck und Aktivitat des Kuhlmittels, Dichtheit der Brennelemente, Dichtheit der Warmetauscher zwischen Kuhl-und Dampfkreislauf, Verschiedenes, z.B. Temperatur des Druckgefasses, der Abschir mung. In Leistungsreaktoren kommen noch konventionelle Kessel- und Tur binenmessungen dazu. Fur bestimmte uberwachungsaufgaben werden industrielle Fernsehanlagen eingesetzt. Mit Ausnahme einfachster Versuchsanlagen werden die Anzeige- und Schreibgerate fur die genannten Betriebsgrossen eines Reaktors in der Schaltwarte zusammengezogen. Die zentralisierte Betriebsuberwachung ist ein Kennzeichen aller Kernkraftwerke, sie wird erforderlich durch die grosse Anzahl von Messgeraten und die Kompliziertheit von In strumentierung und Steuerung. Manchmal ist es jedoch unwirtschaftlich und uberflussig, alle Informationen in die Schaltwarte zu geben. Dann werden einige Gerate in lokalen Leitstanden untergebracht. Zum Beispiel werden im Kernkraftwerk Berkeley Umwalzgeblase und Warmetauscher von Leitstanden in der Nahe der Umwalzgeblase geregelt; nur die wichtigeren Betriebsgrossen werden in die zentrale Schaltwarte weiter gegeben. Es gibt auch eine moderne Entwicklungsrichtung auf vollig zentralisierte uberwachung aller wichtigen Betriebsgrossen von Kern kraftwerken."

Most revision guides provide either content with a few questions, or just practice questions, but this guide presents a good balance of both. The author is highly experienced in preparing students for examinations from all the exam groups, and has trialled the scripts thoroughly. This book is written in plain English to help the student understand and revise. For each of 16 topics there are three pages of key content points followed by plenty of questions to test yourself and to make you aware of any areas needing further study. General guidance on the speci¬cations, revision, and how to approach the exam are provided at the start of the book, and full answers at the end. This book is fully revised for A2 OCR chemistry. As requested by readers this version has more space than earlier versions.
